While
travelling from Chennai on the Chennai - Poonamallee Bypass. On the left-hand
side, you will find a brewery and RRB Energy factory. On that signal, turn
right. There is a Board which shows the direction towards Pattabiram before you
turn right. Go down that not-so-good route for about 8 kms. You will come across
a bridge being constructed and a board which says Sitharkadu. Take left there -
you would be able to see the Rajagopuram from there itself. You could also go
upto Thirumazhisai and turn right at Vellavedu and go down 4 kms to reach
here.
Sitharkadu
can be reached via Poonamallee, Tirumazhisai and taking a turn to right while
going from Chennai. Shared auto-rickshaws are available from the back side of
the Poonamallee bus terminus. Buses are also available for Sitharkadu from the
Poonamallee bus terminus but they are infrequent. Sitharkadu can also be
reached from Vellavedu which is around 4 Kms from there. Before the Vellavedu
bus stop, the right turn leads to Sitharkadu. However, there are no buses or
shared-autorickshaws in this route as of now.
Pattabiram
is on the Chennai to Thiruvallur main road and also on the railway route. From
Pattabiram at the end of the bridge on the south side Share autos are available
up to National hi-way bridge. There are buses too upto Pattabiram from
Koyambedu Bus Stand - M153 and from Poonamallee - M 54C which goes via

a share auto. Share autos are available up to bridge and from there can be
reached through a small walk.
